Antique Tabriz Persian Allover Floral Soft Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug – Circa 1900 BB8585 11'10" × 16'4" $53,000

This exquisite antique Persian Tabriz rug, dating from the early 20th century, showcases the masterful artistry and refined craftsmanship for which Tabriz weavers are renowned. Measuring approximately 16 by 12 feet, it features a harmonious and intricate all-over floral design set against a warm ivory field. The pattern is a celebration of classic Persian elegance, with gracefully scrolling vines, stylized blossoms, and palmettes rendered in a sophisticated palette of soft sky blues, muted corals, warm terracotta, and delicate ivory tones.

The central field is encased by a striking series of borders: a wide main border adorned with floral meanders on a serene powder-blue ground, framed by guard borders with complementary floral motifs in rich red and cream. The interplay between the pale, airy background and the jewel-like accents creates both balance and vibrancy, enhancing the rug’s visual depth.

Woven with exceptional precision, the pile consists of fine wool, providing both durability and a soft, luminous texture. Subtle abrash throughout the piece lends a unique, organic character, reflecting the hand-dyed artistry of its time. This Tabriz is not only a floor covering but also a testament to Persian cultural heritage, ideal for adding timeless elegance and historic charm to any interior.
